Hand GPS
So we all know that we need to have a GPS with us, before we go out. To make sure we stay out of the close out areas. I also got a NEW boat for xmas. So i was wondering what you guys recomend on getting that would be good for my boat and portable to take on my kayak.
thanks -HUGO |

I like these types but if you go on Ebay you can find Black and White screened ones for about $100 to $150.
